After receiving Xia Jizu's praise, Xia Yuanding thought that his grandfather's taste was indeed very high. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

On the other hand, although Xia Yuanjie would not be jealous of him because of this, he was very curious about the article written by Xia Yuanding, why did he get praise from his grandfather.

"Okay, I'll go back and pick up a few articles, all of which are based on very common exam questions, each of you can take back a few articles, and take a good look, I hope you can also learn something from them!"

In addition to making articles, Xia Jizu also prepared articles written by some previous literati for them, not that these articles must be the best, but each one is written in a stable manner, which is very pertinent.

Xia Jizu believes that only these articles are beneficial to beginners, and the final result of coming up with very good articles may be to cause the learner's eye to be low, learning is a gradual process, nothing can be achieved overnight, step by step to reach the desired end.

When holding a volume of articles written by predecessors, Xia Yuanding couldn't help but smile bitterly, he didn't expect that when, the way to deal with the exam is always indispensable.

In the next government examination, and even the later hospital examination and township examination, the questions of the questioners are naturally in the demarcated scriptures, and they will not be out of the range, otherwise they will be beyond the outline.

After a lot of training, the exam will be a good one. From this point of view, Xia Jizu still has a few brushes, at least he knows how to make the exam easy, and cultivating Confucianism is not his wish.

After school, put the articles he got from his grandfather into his schoolbag, Xia Yuanding walked home alone, when he walked on the road, sometimes he would think about some strange things, in the past, the villagers would feel strange pointing, thinking that the child was not mentally problematic, but after returning from the county test, seeing this scene again, the villagers felt very normal.

When he returned home and saw his mother still working hard in front of the loom, Xia Yuanding would silently remember in his heart, whenever he wanted to give up this difficult road to the imperial examination, he always had no courage to face his mother's longing gaze.

At this time, he is not alone, when others are concerned about you, how can your heart not be touched a little!

After talking to his mother, Xia Yuanding returned to his hut, took out the article he got from his grandfather from his schoolbag, took out one and put it on his desk and read it carefully.

“……。 If it is said, the way of a gentleman, when the time is done, it will be done, and when it stops, it will stop. ”

"Yuan Ding, come out to eat, don't study when it's dark!"

"Got it, mother!" put the article down, and Xia Yuanding went out.

Today's dinner, radish and cabbage, seeing these two, Xia Yuanding's appetite suddenly increased, and this meal was quite rich.

"Alas~~~" Xia Shouzhi suddenly sighed for some reason, and lost the atmosphere of what should have been a happy dinner.

"Master!" Xia Li looked at her husband complainingly, blaming him for not making such a gesture in front of the children.

"Okay, don't be stunned, hurry up and eat!" also knew that he was out of shape, so he hurriedly beckoned someone to eat, trying to cover up his sigh just now.

What is his father sighing for, Xia Yuanding thought as he pulled the rice in the bowl.

It turned out that it was still the matter of choosing a concubine, and it was this afternoon that Muramasa Zhoutong officially got the news that the first day of March was the concubine election day set above.

No, Xia Yuanding thought, he must not let such a tragedy happen, his cousin is still in her prime, how can she spoil the old emperor, if she is really selected, she enters the palace, and then the old emperor will burp, that is the tragedy of the world!

To find a way to stop all this, Xia Yuanding's brain was spinning rapidly, how could he lose the election!

Looking at the criteria for choosing a concubine, the first one is that the facial features are good and the person should be beautiful. Xia Yuanding thought of his cousin Xia Qingxue's voice and appearance, and couldn't help but sigh, my cousin is so beautiful! But then I was disheartened, so saying this article didn't make my cousin lose the election.

The second is to know the number of etiquette and be knowledgeable. However, most of the primaries are in line with this article, and the difficulty is that they cannot deliberately deceive on this article. Because you deliberately show that you don't know how to behave, it is very likely that you will be charged with offense, and it will inevitably involve your family in the end.

It seems that there is only a stupid way, and with great painstaking efforts, Xia Yuanding sorted out his thinking and said to Xia Shouzhi: "Dad, I have a way to make my cousin lose the election when choosing a concubine, do you want to listen?" ”

Xia Shouzhi's face was a little unnatural, and he asked suspiciously: "You said that you have a way to make Qingxue lose in this concubine election?" ”

Xia Yuanding saw that the success had aroused his father's interest, so he said with confidence: "Yes, I promise to be defeated, I will tell you?" ”

"Ahem!" Xia Shouzhi interrupted Xia Yuanding's words and said: "Yuanding, these are not things you should care about, you go back and read the book again, if it gets dark, light the lamp, don't spoil your eyes!" ”

After Xia Yuanding heard this, his enthusiasm just now suddenly cooled down, but he didn't expect his father to even give him a chance to speak, did he think that his attention would not work at all, Xia Yuanding was a little frustrated, he was soft-spoken, and he was not talking about others, but himself.

Since they don't want to listen to their own words, then forget it, whoever can save his cousin from the fire pit will let him save it, Xia Yuanding doesn't think about this anymore.

Back in his room, Xia Yuanding was in no mood to read the article at the moment, so he put away all the articles he had taken out and sat on the stool alone in a daze.

"What a failed life!"

Xia Yuanding felt that the past two years had really been wasted, nothing major had been accomplished, and compared with other predecessors, he was simply useless.

It is said that the hoe is strong and helps the weak, our mountain villagers are simple and simple, basically harmonious, and nothing major happens.

said to make money and make a fortune, he was not good at this, he couldn't even remember the formula of papermaking, and he wanted to copy the famous book to sell it for some money, only to find out that she was only familiar with the plot on TV, and the real content of the book was afraid that she couldn't memorize a chapter.

said that the pickled girl was free, but it was a pity, he was too young, and he had no choice but to wait, and it would take more than ten years to pinch his fingers, which was a bit long.

Then he can only pin his hopes on becoming famous, but he disdains to copy other people's poems, which is a typical self-financed maneuver. When he saw the imperial examination, he thought that he had grasped a straw, and it took two years to just pass the county examination, and it would take at least ten years to wait for the township examination and the general examination, and besides, there were so many competitors, and he did not have much advantage over others.

Looking up to the sky and howling, dare to ask where the road is?

"Yuan Ding, why are you sitting in a daze!"

While he was thinking, Xia Li broke in out of place.

"Mother, why did you come in at will, I'm thinking!" Xia Yuanding said with some complaints.

"Why can't my mother come in, you are all born to my mother!"

Xia Yuanding surrendered and admitted: "Okay, okay, you can come in whenever you want!" ”

"That's obedient, my mother boiled the water, and you quickly washed your feet, and the water was cold for a while!"

Calling his son to wash his feet every day has become something that Xia Li has to do, and today is of course no exception.

Let's wash and sleep, Xia Yuanding decided to give up thinking about some bad things, hoping to relieve a thousand sorrows.
